On this two-hour plus set of over 25 songs, "backed by a killer 18-piece band�Collins got most everybody in the Roseland ballroom dancing," states Rolling Stone Magazine. Faithfully recreating the songs he cherishes, like "Dancing In The Street," "Papa Was A Rollin' Stone," and "My Girl" he honored the music with authenticity.

Post School of Rock Venture |
Paul Green wants to save rock & roll. Again. When Green, the founder of the School of Rock, began giving lessons in his living room in 1996, most music instruction was a solitary pursuit relegated to the back of the guitar shop. Today, because of his influence, group/performance-based instruction is the standard. In the intervening years, Green has served as inspiration for a feature film ('School of Rock'), a documentary ('Rock School'), a magazine, several School of Rock tours and more.
Studio House is Green's most audacious endeavor yet. He has long believed that the best music - his favorite music - was created in communal environments free of deadline, budgetary, or industry pressures. Green has created such an environment with Studio House, a facility where established and developing artists can record free of charge while students observe and contribute to the process.
